I’ve been listening to Daydream Nation alot recently and this is the video for Teenage Riot. I quite like this album and having never heard it this time last week I have been listening to it alot on my iPod on my way to and from work.

I’m quite excited to see the return of Twisted Nerve. Almost strictly vinyl! Get over there now, you can buy the Voice Of The Seven Woods album 3 weeks before it is due to come out. I bought it last night!

This week I have been enjoying Scorpio Rising by Death In Vegas. It was the band’s third album which was released in 2003. It’s got a good mixture of songs on it and you may have heard the track Girls in Lost In Translation. I really like the final track, Help Yourself, which is an epic 10 minutes long, but truly beautiful. Hell, they even make Paul Weller sound pretty decent. Above is this video for Scorpio Rising which features Liam Gallagher on vocals.

I went to see The Flying Scotsman recently. I always remembered when Graeme Obree was doing the superman position in cycling when it happened. I guess I found it inspirational at the time. Anyway, I really enjoyed the film. It’s not so much about his cycling abilities but more about his battle with depression. Anyway, if you get the chance, go and see it.

Recently, I have been listening to The Boredoms quite alot (sorry Graeme). I just really enjoy their music, so I thought I would throw up some links for you to check out. There is www.boredoms.co.uk which is a little discography site and recommends some of their work. There is also the Wikipedia entry for The Boredoms as well.
